Charity in Calabasas
By: Kenny Melcombe
Saturday, December 10, 2011 at the Calabasas Commons marked the kickoff of the 2012 Calabasas Relay For Life in part with the American Cancer Society. We had a great turn out by the community as well as the fantastic sponsors for the day from the Commons.
The event started out with a scavenger hunt around the commons where teams started with a clue and checked various places around the commons. After the event, everyone met up in front of Marmalade Café for a bite to eat where we had a brief talk sharing what Relay For Life is about, how to start a team, how to fundraise, and all the particulars. A big thank you to restaurants at the Commons including La Salsa, Marmalade, Le Pain Quotidien, Crumbs, Ralphs. Food was terrific especially the soup from Le Pain Quotidien.
Great Event…Pre Event for the big Relay happening in May 2012.
Our grand sponsor is the City of Calabasas and there is room for more. Corporate Sponsors–you name it. So, if you want to get involved as a participant, sponsor, volunteer, and/or start a team please sign up online at www.relayforlife.org/calabasasca and/or contact me, Kenny Melcombe and I will get you started.
